Intro:

(no guitar) ah ah ah ect.

 

Verse 1:          
  Am                       F

I sat on the roof as the night came down

G

Looking out over this pitiful town
      Am                      F                   G                 E

And thought of you out there back in the race    Looking for someone to take my place

Pre-Chorus:

Dm              Am     G  Dm                 E          Am       Gsus4-G             

That's when it hit me       That's when the walls came down

 

Chorus:

C                        Csus4     C

I never thought it could happen to us 

           F                                        C

Now we're going round, breakin' down each other's hearts
    C                        Csus4     C

So go on and blame me for whatever you must 

     F                                           C

But we've become just like the ones we laughed about
      G  Em               Am  G-F-G

This time, this time it's us

 

Verse 2:

Up in a watchtower with the streetlights below  

In a town full of places that we used to go
And a river of people walkin' two by two  

Everything I see now reminds me of you

 

Pre-Chorus  2:

Dm             Am     G

That's when it hit me

Dm             G  E       Am  Gsus4-G
That's when it all came true

 

Chorus 2:

'Cause I never thought it could happen to us
Now we're going round, breakin' down
Each other's hearts
So go one and blame me
For whatever you must
But we've become just like the ones
We were laughing about

      G   E
This time, this time it's us

I never thought it could happen to us  

           G                                        D

Now we're going round, breakin' down each other's hearts
    D                        Dsus4      D

So go on and blame me for whatever you must   

    G                                                 D

But we've become just like the ones we were laughing about
